Climate Connections: This Earthshot Finalist Is Stealing This Winter’s Coolest Sustainable Look With Bacteria

View descriptionShare
 

Colour is what makes your clothes pop. But, those dyes that are used to colour your clothes are actually really bad for the environment because most are made from fossil fuel chemicals.

On this episode of Climate Connections, we feature Christopher Hunter, Chief Operating Officer, Colorifix - a UK-based company that’s harnessing the colour-changing ability of bacteria in nature to make those dyes. The company is also a finalist of The Earthshot Prize 2023, which was held in Singapore.
